Hi everybody,

Well, first, i'm using htdig-3.2.0b3.

I am using htdig to dig different parts of my web server. So, I create more than one 
database and provide search in each of these ones. I also dig the all web server to 
provide a full search. But as you probably know, my full database is redundant with 
other ones !!!
space and time are lost...

So, I was happy to find the 'collection_names' attribut !!! But it seems to me that it 
has no effect or I don't know how to use it.

First, I tried to write a conf file with collection_names: base1 base2
I have base1.conf and base2.conf in my conf dir and they are working as I use them 
separately.
But only base1 is used for the search !
Well, of course, because I have database_base pointing to base1 database !!!
So I remove the database_base, but an error occurs because htsearch need this attribute
I read this in the source code 'htsearch.cc' lines 307 to 312 :

    const String        word_db = config["word_db"];
    if (access(word_db, R_OK) < 0)
    {
        reportError(form("Unable to read word database file '%s'\nDid you run 
htmerge?",
                         word_db.get()));
    }

So :
1. If i don't have database_base ---> an error occurs
2. If i have database_base ---> the base is used and collection_names has no effect !

So I tried htsearch inline as Gilles Detillieux said :

./htsearch "config=base1;config=base2;words=test"

and it works... well, but htsearch is mainly used to be call as a cgi !!!

ok, i change my search form and put the lines :
   <input type=hidden name=config value=base1>
   <input type=hidden name=config value=base2>
 ('words' is provided in the form)

and it works too... but wait : 2 things !!!

1. the 'base1' and 'base2' names appears in the source code and I don't want them to 
appear
2. I don't use collection_names anywhere ! what can I do to use it in the way it is 
designed to ??

please if you have a working example, posting it will be greatly appreciated !
who is using collection_names not in vain ??? thanks for all your replies !
